deb what you want is listed as an app but it does not function as advertised and instead collects data on you and your friends only. as jodi mentioned any app that would ever function that way would definitely have the ability to disable being found out. FB eats up an already insane amount of storage space and i doubt they will ever have the true ability to trace searches as that would require every search be stored and able to be referenced. the amount of space requirred for that is not possible on any free service. it is also my understanding they, FB, have yet to make $$ and do not project profits for yrs yet. no profits=no serious expansion. marygail what you are talking about involves the privacy settings i mentioned above. the photos you are able to see are able to be seen by friends of friends. i am psychotic about my photos, as i take what i think are fabulous pics but i do not trust anyone to have them on their website, like FB. i put up only the ones i don't care about, those of publishing quality are not up :-) not even to just friends lol and i have never posted any of those here ~ liz

I resisted the Timeline until I was forced to switch. i got used to it and know I think it's fine. In fact, the old pages look out of style to me. It's fun to choose your background picture, although keep in mind that there is no way to make it private, so my advice is to keep it not too personal. I always thought I would sit and read the newspaper and drink coffee every morning when I retired. Now I drink coffee and check different sites on my laptop. Oh well, if I've only learned one thing in life it's that nothing stays the same forever. Except love. Love never changes.

It's not usually sent to them in an email or anything, but they can see that you've posted new pictures. If they have their facebook open, on the page where it shows what all your friends are doing, it will say, "Kat has posted new pictures", and then they can click on it to see. If you post it directly into your Wall and not into your albums, the picture will just show up automatically on their News Feed. Do you agree with me about that? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Following up on this discussion. I have since met with four different cabinet "brokers"; two who do custom builds, one who works in kitchen/bath design, and another online retailer. I feel even more confused. The custom cabinet guy has been in busy here for decades. He does custom and he will also order with factory finish. We talked at length about finish durability and he said the most durable finish is one that is done in the home after install with coats of paint and a topcoat. I have also tried to reach out to two area Omega dealers and have gotten no response from either. In talking with other companies about how cabinets are made with them, I do not understand why the unfinished maple cabinets (plywood boxes and doors) would be considered "junk" as mentioned. To me, they seem to be of better quality. They are not made in China, but in the NE states and come fully assembled with custom sizes and styles. They are also 1/2 the price of the quotes I have gotten here for finished mdf cabinets.
